Richa Chadha on ‘Cabaret’: “My character is brave, not bold”

Richa Chadha has been wowing with the first looks and first song from the forthcoming film, ‘Cabaret’, which is produced by Pooja Bhatt. The actress has been on quite a journey since her debut but with this character she says it is bravery and not boldness that is what she’s about.

“My character is brave, not bold. She’s a survivor and a fighter. Pooja’s pushed me out of my comfort zone and made me look into a mirror that reflects a face with plenty of make-up,” said Chadha to Mumbai Mirror.

Talking about chopping and changing between her two films ‘Cabaret’ and ‘Sarbjit’, Chadha recalled, “While combing out the curls and taking off the fake eyelashes, I started mumbling in Punjabi. My driver thought I was going crazy. By the time we reached the location, I had transformed into a seedhi-saadhi Punjabi woman with my accent in place”.

‘Cabaret’ is slated for release on 9th June and is directed by��Kaustav Narayan Niyogi.
